So...I spent my life from 4th Grade through 12th living in Great Falls, Virginia. I moved back for a while after college and then ended up living closer to DC. But what I loved about Great Falls...is, well, they have some Falls, that are really great!

It is really beautiful here --- reminds me of all the times I came here to climb around on the rocks and hike from one area to the other. Across the water is Maryland. That side is also very pretty. But of course.....I am partial to the Virginia side.

There's also a lot of history here -----

The remains of an old lock that was used in transporting goods to DC.

This was a gorgeous day and we took advantage of it!
